hey people, Im trying to make my wii as closeto clean andwireless as possible, getting a wireless sencor bar. Im thinking about getting a Nintendo brand wavebird controler, just to give nintendo some extra cash, or a pelican controler. With the wavebird there are 16 diffrent channels, so It would not disturb the other controler's waves. I don't think the pelican has this so I was wondering if i get four pelican controlers, will they interfear with each other. I hope not, cuz the nintendo ones are bigger, and weigh more. Plus they don't have the rumble feture. The pelicans are lighter then the norm and have rumble, plus cost at lest 15$ less.

I have 2 I-Con wireless GC controllers... and they both auto select and don't interfere with each other.
So... I can use either reciever with either controller.
I know it's not pelican but it's aftermarket and same technology...so it might help
Allan!

Not shure about a handful of pelicans but my advice is buy a Wavebird... then a couple pelicans... when u play with your buddies be greedy n use the nicer wavebird for yourself
more helpful... the pelican has 8 channels... so im shure you're ok
anyone used these pelican controllers? they any good? i'm looking for some cheap gc controllers myself

I've never had good luck with Pelican accessories. Twice I've bought their stuff, it didn't work as advertised. I was going to send back a GBA cable to them, and the cheap a$$ connector broke off one end! They wouldn't take it back! >_>
I don't like that company at ALL.

Thanks I like that idea, I have a wavebird it works great, but its getting messed up, my cuz threw it hard on the wall a few times. Periodicly it's sencors get really close range(half an inch) but other then that I love it. I just want the rumble feture for non-nintendo fans to notice. The Gamecube is an EXTREAMLY underated, under fed, and needs to be expossed.

Um, no one is going to answer while your being annoying by bumping your thread every hour.
Personally, I'd go with the Wavebird. One of my friends bought a Pelican once and it crapped out; also while the Wavebird is a bit bigger, it fits better in your hand than the smaller Pelican ones.

Am I wrong... dont you have to be careful which wireless controller you get... the Gamecube sockets are in the back of the wii, which means some wireless controllers wont work...

Actually this guy is partly right. He may have been incorrect on where the GC sockets are on the wii, but I too have heard that some Wireless GC Controllers (Madcatz, I believe) do not fit in the Wii's gamecube ports.

its not that the wireless dont fit the wii... its that the wii has a cover over the gc ports... you have to remove the cover, thats all

dipshit.
just cuz you sounded like an idiot with your WRONG remark about the gamecube ports doesnt mean you should bash on people when they call you on your stupidity.
